icewm is one example of an application that is under LGPL. Of course to take advantage of the clauses that would allow you to link icewm to a prorietary app you would need to turn it (or parts of it) into a library, but there is still noting stopping you licencing applications under the LGPL.
have a look in make menuconfig. there is acceleration for certain matrox cards in 2.2, might be more in 2.4
would have been nice if they'd used ggi rather than straight framebuffer tho
What do you call taxing everyone to fund welfare for the poor (and the rich), like we're doing now?
equality?
there is a big difference between taxing all to help the needy and punishing the successful to prop up those who are not
BTW I am not an american, i don't know how your system currently works. but by all accounts it is much fairer (in terms of rewarding the successful) than what nader is proposing
What you forget is that corporations are not big evil entities. They are owned by shareholders who are regular people like you and me. Why should they be penalised for being successful?
Which of course translates to things *he* doesn't like. When you vote for Nader (or to be fair, anyone but Browne) you are giving the government the power to make moral decisions like this for you.
Like I said above, Nader is essentially a socialist. Not that there is anything wrong with that but I hope those who are voting for him realise that they are voting for socialism.
Basically he wants to tax the weathly to fund welfare for the poor. That's socialism. I've got nothing agaist people who want to vote for a socialist government, but before you vote for Nader you should recognise that that is what he stands for.
If they can prove you are distributing binaries without source they could probably do something, but if you are just distributing within your organisation they can't - even if you are making modifications. Remember the GPL covers distribution not use.
usually you don't discover that your ISP is using MAPS until legitimate mail starts bouncing. MAPS is the worst form of censorship since they have convinved so many that they are a good thing.
The US is a free enough country that anyone can start their own AOL, Microsoft, Time/Warner or whatever. These compaines are not monopolies, they have lots of competition. If you let the Government push around the companies you don't like, soon they'll start pushing around the companies you do like.
i think what a lot of people don't get is that not all businesses are trying to find slave labour. many of them simply can't afford to hire what an experienced IT person would charge. i make AU $36000 a year (divide by 2 for US$) doing SCO and Linux admin and support for an IT distributor. I'm the sole tech contact for users and resellers in two states. i got that job with two years experience in ISP tech support (start, run, inetwiz sort of stuff). some might say i'm underpaid but i would never have been able to get a position like that if they were paying market rates.
IIRC a year and a half ago xfce was written using the xforms library. They've since switched to gtk. Last time I used it is was actually possible to run it alongside icewm (I beleive they use the same WM hints as gnome).
it's about establishing a base level competancy. obviosly someone with 5 years is going to be more experienced that someone who went to a boot camp - a company can tell that by looking at your resume.

unless you run -managed wine will ignore the window manager (which will cause what you described)

so aids only affects those who have unprotected sex. reproduction only affects those who have unprotected sex. doesn't really make sense to me...
it's people like you that demonstrate why MAPS needs to be sued out of existance

It would be interesting to see some of these in the style of a first person shooter.

um, redhat control gcc now? doesn't seem like it
not that i agree (tho i do hate the big ugly grey OSDN banners on t.o) but i hear plenty of bitching over VA...

eiffel is a great language, but i have never seen a decent compiler for it - free or commecial they all produce huge unoptimised code

of course you need command line switches to get all the running processes, but they asked you not to give that
running a linux box at home (sendmail, apache, bind etc...) is exactly what got me my current job
that is why employers take into account a number of factors, not just experience, certification etc..
it's about establishing a base level competancy. obviosly someone with 5 years is going to be more experienced that someone who went to a boot camp - a company can tell that by looking at your resume.
true, but serious software engineers don't usually make the hiring decisions.
go to any job search site and look for MCSE, plently of jobs. do the same for linux certification...
